Towards an Integrated Earthquake Disaster Simulation System
This paper introduces the overall structure of an integrated earthquake disaster simulation system which is being developed under five year Special Project for Earthquake Disaster Mitigation in Urban Areas supported by the MEXT of Japan. This project aims to connect in a unity more than a dozen of simulators for individual natural phenomena and human activities involved in a big urban earthquak...
متن کاملSocial Issues in Post Disaster Reconstruction Planning
Post disaster reconstruction in the destructed zones entails the social aspects in addition to the physical and urban aspects, because of the presence of affected people in the very location. The presented research aims to assess the social aspects of the post disaster conditions in the course of reconstruction, which take into consideration the related social factors in the affected community....
متن کاملBalancing pre-disaster preparedness and post-disaster relief
Challenges associated with resource allocation to mitigate and recover from natural and man-made disasters inspire new theoretical questions for decision making in the intertwined natural and human world. Disaster loss is determined not only by post-disaster relief but also the pre-disaster mitigation and preparedness. To examine the decision making process at ex ante and ex post disaster stage...
متن کاملDisaster Mitigation Engineering -the Kobe Earthquake Disaster
The concept of plate tectonics is generally accepted in earth science and seismology. The surface of the earth is divided into rigid tectonic plates that move on the earth surface at extremely slow speed. The islands of Japan sit on the North American and Eurasian plates. The Pacific plate moves westward and the Philippines plate moves to northwest direction; both plates sink under the islands ...
متن کاملResilient Disaster Response: Using Remote Sensing Technologies for Post-Earthquake Damage Detection (2001-2003)
The objectives of this research are to characterize urban building damage , using a comparative analysis of remote sensing imagery acquired before and after an earthquake event, and to develop preliminary damage detection algorithms for locating collapsed urban structures. R emote sensing technologies are emerging as useful post-earthquake damage evaluation tools. Recent studies in Japan, Europ...
